The current game in the series, Battlefield 5 , was marred with issues from the day it was released. The game not only felt incomplete, with its miniscule map roster and plethora of bugs, but future updates were incredibly inconsistent and many promised features never saw the light of day, such as the 5v5 competitive mode . Even its attempt at a battle royale mode, called Firestorm in Battlefield 5 , wasn’t safe from its own set of issues. Battlefield 5’s life cycle was so turbulent that its final content patch was released last summer , more than a year before the next game in the series is expected to rele


To do this, Battlefield needs to capitalize on what makes it special , come up with a unique and defining feature, or even both. One major thing that Battlefield still has over every other shooter out there is the sheer destruction the Frostbite engine is capable of. Destructible environments have been a mainstay for the franchise since Bad Company 2 , but it's become such a non-factor in recent entries. Emphasizing how destruction can change Battlefield 's battle royale would be a perfect integration of core mechanics with things like mortar strikes, more vehicles, anything to dial in on the chaos Battlefield does b


With the launch of the next-generation consoles, it looks like EA and DICE are hoping to resuscitate the Battlefield series. In the company’s latest earnings call, EA CEO Andrew Wilson gave a few details on some of the company’s plans for 2021 and beyond. According to Wilson, the next Battlefield game is already in the works at DICE and features "never-before-seen scale." Wilson added that the next-generation consoles are giving the studio the opportunity to actualize their "next-gen vision" for the ser


Henderson’s comments on how "feedback from 3rd parties has been overwhelmingly positive compared to previous installments" should be extremely promising for fans of the series. While opinions will certainly vary on the game when it arrives, knowing that those who have had a chance to play the game early have enjoyed it is surely good news for the Battlefield community. Based on the positivity thus far, DICE seems set to deliver on Battlefield 6 's ambitious ide


It’s undeniable that Battlefield 5 was the most disappointing entry in the series for many players, and both EA and DICE have a lot of work to do with **Battlefield 6 ** if they want to make up for all of its predecessor’s shortcomings. Hopefully, both companies have learned from the failure of Battlefield 5 and are able to revive hope and excitement for the series when they finally reveal more information on the game next y


Battlefield 6 is a next-gen game with a next-gen release date, with the game planned to launch sometime in the fiscal year 2022. That narrows it down to a launch window between October 2021 to September 2022. Traditionally, Battlefield releases in the fall with many of the year's other heavy-hitters, so, a fall 2021 release date seems like the most likely possibility. That means Battlefield 6 won't be competing with the next Call of Duty, it will exist in the wake of it and compete with the entry after that, which will presumably be from Sledgehammer games. The typical Call of Duty developer rotation has become a bit jumbled lately, as Sledgehammer's next Call of Duty has reportedly had a troubled development cyc


Before the popularization of battle royale shooters , Battlefield games were pioneering massive maps, large-scale tactics, and Battlefield2042pedia.com huge numbers of players clashing in a single game. However, in the time since Battlefield introduced players to player counts of 64 and up, games like PUBG , Fortnite , Apex Legends , and Call of Duty: Warzone have far surpassed Battlefield 's numbers and scale. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare even has Ground War, which is essentially the core Battlefield -sized-map experience offered alongside all the other CoD game mo


A modern setting is a good way for Battlefield to create some free marketing for a few reasons. Games set in modern times tend to stir up more controversy due to their portrayals of violence, which means more headlines and time on the news. That translates to more eyeballs and more sales, even if that was never the intention for those reporting on controversial aspects of the game. A modern setting is also bound to draw comparisons to Modern Warfare, which is another way to market the game without spending a penny on advertisements, as comparison videos are bound to flood YouTube whenever a trailer relea


For now, players are going to have to stick with Battlefield 5, whether they enjoy the World War 2 setting or not. There's still quite a bit of time until Battlefield 6 is ready to go, though it will likely be the product of market shifts between now and when it actually launches. It's fair to assume that the development of the game is already well underway, and with the last two games taking place in the past, there's a good chance that players will return to a modern sett
